If you want to find out whether a particular school accepts AP credits or a different department class to fulfill medical school prerequisites, how do you do so?

Should you call the admissions office and ask something along the lines of:

Hi.. my name is ____... (insert polite phrase and transitions) does this School X accept ____ or ____ to fulfill your X requirement before matriculation?

Please feel free to modify above statement if you've done this before and it worked out well.

My idea is that a phone call would be better than an email, but an email would provide some hard evidence if any issues arise during matriculation. Should I just stick with phone calls to the schools to find out if they accept certain credits for their matriculation requirements?
 
And if you don't have MSAR (like me!), most of the med school websites state AP credit policy (even CC policy sometimes).
